Last year, the tech giant rolled out an online digital skills platform called Digital Skills for Africa with a goal to teach 10 million people across Africa online skills over the next five years to make them more employable using its platform.

The app is supported on devices running Android v4.3 (Jelly Bean) and above and will be available in 26 countries in sub-Saharan Africa. It will also be pre-installed on all Android Oreo (Go edition) devices, which will be available in stores soon.
